| 1 | Epidermal growth factor upregulates serotonin transporter and its association with visceral hypersensitivity in irritable bowel syndrome显示文摘AIM: To investigate the role of epidermal growth factor(EGF) in visceral hypersensitivity and its effect on the serotonin transporter(SERT).METHODS: A rat model for visceral hypersensitivity was established by intra-colonic infusion of 0.5% acetic acid in 10-d-old Sprague-Dawley rats. The visceral sensitivity was assessed by observing the abdominal withdrawal reflex and recording electromyographic activity of the external oblique muscle in response to colorectal distension. An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to measure the EGF levels in plasma and colonic tissues. SERT mRNA expression was detected by real-time PCR while protein level was determined by Western blot. The correlation between EGF and SERT levels in colon tissues was analyzed by Pearson's corre-lation analysis. SERT function was examined by tritiated serotonin(5-HT) uptake experiments. Rat intestinal epithelial cells(IEC-6) were used to examine the EGF regulatory effect on SERT expression and function via the EGF receptor(EGFR).RESULTS: EGF levels were significantly lower in th rats with visceral hypersensitivity as measured in plas ma(2.639 ± 0.107 ng/mL vs 4.066 ± 0.573 ng/mL, < 0.01) and in colonic tissue(3.244 ± 0.135 ng/10 mg vs 3.582 ± 0.197 ng/100 mg colon tissue, P 0.01) compared with controls. Moreover, the EGF leve were positively correlated with SERT levels(r = 0.820 P < 0.01). EGF displayed dose- and time-dependen increased SERT gene expressions in IEC-6 cells. A EGFR kinase inhibitor inhibited the effect of EGF o SERT gene upregulation. SERT activity was enhance following treatment with EGF(592.908 ± 31.515 fmo min per milligram vs 316.789 ± 85.652 fmol/min pe milligram protein, P < 0.05) and blocked by the EGF kinase inhibitor in IEC-6 cells(590.274 ± 25.954 fmo min per milligram vs 367.834 ± 120.307 fmol/min pe milligram protein, P < 0.05).CONCLUSION: A decrease in EGF levels may contribute to the formation of visceral hypersensitivity through downregulation of SERT-mediated 5-HT uptake into enterocytes. | Xiu-Fang Cui Wei-Mei Zhou Yan Yang Jun Zhou Xue-Liang Li Lin Lin Hong-Jie Zhang | 2014 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2014，20，37： | 9 |
| 2 | Fibroblasts, an inconspicuous but essential player in colon cancer development and progression显示文摘Tumor microenvironments have a crucial role in cancer initiation and progression, and share many molecular and pathological features with wound healing process. Unless treated, tumors, however, do not heal in contrast to wounds that heal within a limited time framework. Wounds heal in coordination of a myriad of types of cells, particularly endothelial cells, leukocytes, and fibroblasts. Similar sets of cells also contribute to cancer initiation and progression, and as a consequence, anti-cancer treatment strategies have been proposed and tested by targeting endothelial cells and/or leukocytes. Compared with endothelial cells and leukocytes, less attention has been paid to the roles of cancer-associated fibroblasts(CAFs), fibroblasts present in tumor tissues, because their heterogeneity hinders the elucidation on them at cellular and molecular levels. Here, we will discuss the origin of CAFs and their crucial roles in cancer initiation and progression, and the possibility to develop a novel type of anti-cancer treatment by manipulating the migration and functions of CAFs. | Naofumi Mukaida Soichiro Sasaki | 2016 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2016，22，23： | 4 |
